google alerts

are a good way to learn what people are saying about you.

I just received a terrific alert:

all the way from a college student in Georgia,

who actually worked with my daughter in a local Connecticut ice cream shop

and knew nothing about my blog.

She happened by my blog by accident.

I would like to think it was a case of serendipity.

so thanks Claudine for the sweet post.

Why the slinky?

It was invented through serendipity.

"The Slinky was invented by US Navy engineer Richard T. James after he accidentally knocked a torsion spring off his work table and observed its unique motion."
